Notes

Resuscitated old vial of Flemish Ale Blend in 1/2 gallon starter. Used saved yeast from Bodacious and Psycho; WYEYEASY1214 Belgian Abbey and White Labs WLP644 Sacchraromyces Bruxellensis Trois. Mixed all yeasts in a starter days prior to brewing. The Perle Hops are very old. The IBU is intentionally low to favor the Lactobacillus in the Flemish Ale yeast.

This was a long time coming. I decided to brew this in the traditional manner, using an 18 month ferment to develop all the flavors. It's great. It can use another 6 months of age in the bottle. I'll probably never again brew anything this demanding. I'll be trying kettle-sours in the future.
